In the bay-window, where the ceremones' were performed, an altar of white carnations had been erected, and extending from that to the back drawing- room was an archway supported by col- umns of the same flower.

Miss Helnzeman was exquisitely gowned in white duchess satin trimmed with pleated chiffon and point lace. The costume, which was a beautiful creation was made with a pleated chitfon skirt an tunic of satin, edged with point lace and trimmed with point lace insertion. The waist was made with a drop yoke of tucked satin edged with point lace, and the bodice was of pleated chiffon with sleeves of the same material, tucked. She carried a bouquet of bride roses tied with broad satin ribbon. Half an hour later, to the strains of the same wedding march, the second couple entered. Rev. V. B. W. R. Taylor of St. John's Episcopal Church performed the ceremony. Miss Augusta Heinzeman was also exquisitely gowned. Her dress was of white taffeta with white | French silk mull over the same. The skirt | was made with two pleated muil ruffles on the bottom and the tunic was of taffeta | covered with silk mull amtl edged with pleated mull ruffles, headed with seed pearls. The voke and sleeves were of shirred_mull and at every shirring were rows of seed pearls. Point lace outlined the drop yoke, and the bodice was of ed muil. The belt was of white satin stened with a gold buckle studded with | diamonds. The brides, who are charming | young ladies, are well known in Los An- | geles and have the best wishes of their numerous frier Mr. Cashem is_the son | of John Cashem, president of the National | Ice Company in San Francisco, and Mr. | Clark, who is a violinist and well known in Los Angeles musical circles, is_the son | of Marion Clark of Oakland.

AM genuinely sorry for the summer | protect the skin from further exposure maiden that fluttered away this sum- | to the elements. mer minus her cold cream jar, with the determination to return as “brown as a berry."” 1 met one of these girls last June. She was highly jubilant at the prospect | of an outing at the seashore. To my admonition not to forget her cold cream Jjar she remarked that never a smitch of cold cream would find its way into_her trunk this year. “No, sirree,’ she added emphatically; “last yvear I supplied myself with all sorts of creams and lotions; took along an ex- tra supply of veils and gloves, and liter- ally spent the entire summer caring for my complexion to prevent looking upon my return to town as though my face had been dipped in redhot grease. Well, 1 didn't have a bit of a good time, and Wwhen my friends saw me they all de- clared they didn’t believe I'd been away at all; thought I'd just been concealing myself in an attic or a back bedroom! So no cold cream this year, and my trunk boasts nothing in the way of a head pro- tection but a few of the daintiest little hats that would be about as much service in protecting my face from the sun as a doughnut pinned to my tresses. doubting _Thomases _shan’t have shadow of a chance this year.” the And she wafted me a kiss from the tips | of her fingers and was gone without hav-| ¢t 1" 6unce glycerin, and alcohol enough ing given me an opportunity to slip in a word edgeways. Well! 1 met her again yesterday, and of all the forlorn looking creatures that one could possibly imagine she certainly took the lead. Her nose looked as though it was endeavoring to amputate itself by a slow peeling process, and her erstwhile fair complexion was covered with a gold- en brown tan that had distributed itself like patehes on a crazy quilt. W what kind of a time did you Py state of her complexion, but well-nigh bursting with a desire to say "I told you so.” *Oh, 1 had a glorious time. Went fish- ing without any hatfat all and sat out on a huge, beautiful bowlder by the sea, | With the only young man in the place! Never gave my complexion a thought— just went in for a good time and had it, but do you think 1'm hilariously happy, now that it's all over? Look at my face! | Did you ever see anything quite S0 | hideous?”" | “But Low about your friends?” I inter- rupted. ““Have you succeeded in convine- ou spent your summer away from tow “My friends!” she exciaimed, ‘‘the brutes do nothing but giggle and smirk and nudge each other, and make disa- greeable allusions to cold cream and other remedies. Dear Mme. Hygeia, I shall take your advice next time, but what in the world shall I do in the meanwhile to get rid of this horrid tan? There are probably others in the same boat with this little girl, so they shall have the benefit of my suggestion Tan is much easier to acquire than to got rld of. Besides, it's a case of “him that has, gits.”” However, as it is caused merely by exposure to wind or sun, it is the easiest thing in the world to avold. Gloves, a few pretty veils and a good sized parasol will successfuly combat the warmest of old Sol's rays and the bliz- zardiest blizzard that ever hailed from Medicine Hat. Any good cold cream will help matters along. Never, under any cir- cumstances, bathe your face in soap and water before going out or just after com- ing in. A lotion that is said to prevent the skin from tanning to any great extent is the following: Distilled witch hazel, three ounces. Prepared cucumber juice, three ounces, Rosewater, one and one-half ounces. Fssence of white rose, one and one-half | ounces. Simple tincture of benzoin, ounce. Rub this into the skin with the finger tips and after the cuticle has absorbed it arply a pure vegetable powder. After the face has become tanned or gun burned there really is nothing to .do but to apply plenty of cold cream and to one-half The | I inquired, delicately ignoring the | | | Answers to Correspondents. O. N. E—The only way to keep the pores of the skin emptied of the seba- ceous matter that clogs them is to give the face an energetic scrubbing every night with a complexion brush of good, firm bristles, warm water and castile goap. Follow the E(‘rubhing with a liberal smearing with a good cold cream. I am sure. this will help you. MAUDIE—The following tonic will cer- tainly make the eyebrows grow: Red vaseline, 3 ounces; tincture of canthar- ides, 1, ounce; Jamaica rum, % ounce; origanum, § drops; glycerin, 3 ounce; oil MART OX R PR 3 NTER—T am very sorr; that I could not give you an aus;?;zr ]us}: when you requested it, but it would not have been fair to the others who were ahead of you. You say you are obliged to do much brain work. This doubtless is the cause of the loss of your hair. The hair splits at the ends because of lack of nourishment at the roots, and as long as-the split ends remain the halr will re- fuse to grow. The first thing to do, then, is to singe off all the split ends, every one of them, and then supply the nourishment that is lacking. Sometimes a little warm olive oil rubbed into the roots with the fingertips is all that is necessary. How- ever, 1 wish you would try the followin, tonic. It is a wonder, and even lhnugE it has alcohol in it, I' feel certain that it will stop the hair coming out almost in- stantly: Forty-eight grains resorcin, one- to fill a two-ounce bottle. Apply to the scalp every night with a_small sponge rubbing it in well. Very dry hair should not be shampooed oftener than once a month. If you really hesltate to use a tonic containing alcohol, then try the fol- lowing: Two drams tincture of canthar- ides, Six ounces essence of rosemary and eleven ounces elderflower water. I should not cut the hair off if I'were you; at least not yet awhile. SISSY—Yes, the warm olive oil will cer- tainly bring about the development you desire if you use it every night of your life, rubbing it into the skin for ten or fiftéen minutes at a time. It will be at least seven or eight weeks before any de- velopment will be noticeable, but it will surely come if the rubbing is persisted in. Dashing with cold water in the morning | and rubbing with a Turkish towel will | help the work along. TESLA—You will find the following lo~ tion delightful .or the hands: Gum trag- acanth, whole, 30 grain: rosewater, T ounces; glycerin, 1 ounce; alcohol, 14 ounce. Soften the tragacanth in ros: water for a day or two, and strain_for- cibly through muslin or cheesecloth. Then add glycerin and alcohol. Previously mixed, shake well and periume to suit. VALERIE FLOYD—The Ilotion sug- gested in foregoing letter to Tesla Is just what vou need to whiten and soften the hands. The best complexion brush is one of firm, wnite bristles. Use it just as you would any brush e e————— Madarie Neergaard, pup!l of St. Gernafn, sclentific palmist; reading, by mafl $1; office hours 1 to 8 p. m. 616 Geary st., above Jones; classes.
